Jesus the Wise Counsellor

For to us a child is born,
    to us a son is given,
    and the government will be on his shoulders.
And he will be called
    Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,

The Spirit of the Lord will rest on him—
    the Spirit of wisdom and of understanding,
    the Spirit of counsel and of might,
    the Spirit of the knowledge and fear of the Lord

I will praise the Lord, who counsels me;
    even at night my heart instructs me.

13 “To God belong wisdom and power;
    counsel and understanding are his.

If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.

Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.
